Impact of COVID-19 on the MRO market for the manufacturing industry
The spread of COVID-19 severely impacted the performance of several industries, including manufacturing across the globe. Through the macro challenges, such as disrupted supply chains, decentralized workforce, and the provision of safe and healthy employee workspaces, MRO market players had to deal with monumental market dynamics. Governments were forced to shut down manufacturing plants and halt import-export operations. As a result, several industries stopped their ongoing production operations, disrupting supply chains, and affecting the demand-supply balance.
The lockdown severely impacted the manufacturing industry. On the demand side, the impact of COVID-19 on manufacturing yielded two distinct results: decreased demand in some areas and an increase in others. A survey by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) stated that around 78.0% of manufacturers were affected financially, and 35.5% faced supply chain disruptions due to COVID-19. Whether manufacturers were increasing capacity or adjusting production in response to demand, these changes had a major impact on equipment performance, maintenance, repair schedules and practices, and the ability to meet consumer demand on time. On the other hand, the intensifying need to curb cost and improve product quality, reduce operational expenditure through process efficiency, and optimize supply chain management contributed to the demand for MRO services.
The pandemic adversely affected the adoption of MRO in a few industries in 2020 due to the diminished demand for MRO services in industries such as food & beverage, consumer products, and electronics & semiconductors. However, the demand for MRO services in the pharmaceutical and medical devices industry increased due to the high demand for vaccines, cold chain logistics, and medical equipment manufacturing amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.
The adoption of MRO is helping the manufacturing industry attain consistency in production and decrease downtime, optimize facilities and reduce overall energy consumption, helping overcome various challenges related to COVID-19 and driving the recovery of the MRO market for the manufacturing industry. There is an increasing demand for MRO services in the manufacturing industry as the solutions can be easily integrated with various technologies, including AI, 5G, AR, and IIoT, to gain a distinct competitive advantage.
Due to the impact of COVID-19, several technology companies are focused on providing RFID solutions to strengthen industries such as supply chain & logistics, retail, and manufacturing. For instance, in 2021, Advanced Technology Services, Inc. (U.S.) announced an investment and partnership with Nikola Labs Inc. (U.S.) to help digitally transform the maintenance strategy of manufacturers. Such developments and the increasing levels of MRO outsourcing and adoption of the integrator model for MRO sourcing are expected to boost market growth during the forecast period.
Market dynamics
1 factors across 1 forceThe proliferation of digital transformation in MRO processes driving the growth of the MRO market for the manufacturing industry
Digital business transformation has helped enterprises survive and thrive in a fast-changing and competitive marketplace and developing operational strategies. Manufacturers are turning to digital transformation to help automate their processes and equipment. MRO leverages big data, AI/ML, and machine vision to unleash new capabilities and operate business models, enabling value chain intelligence to ecosystem partners. Integrating advanced technologies, including AI, IIoT, and cloud analytics in MRO enables companies to achieve faster response, proactive planning, improved productivity, and consistent dispatch reliability.
AI/ML technologies help virtually monitor maintenance and repair, reduce the risk of failure with periodic assessments, and help minimize unplanned downtime. Cloud-based data analytics helps to proactively monitor the customer’s maintenance needs, improve field service efficiency, and advance customer engagement. The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) promotes operational transparency and helps to reduce unplanned downtime in manufacturing operations. Several companies use advanced technologies to increase performance and safety and reduce costly downtime.
In November 2022, Actility (France) and Advantech Co., Ltd. (Taiwan) partnered to launch a new AI-based intelligent predictive maintenance IoT solution called the ‘Advantech IoT starter kit’ to detect anomalous behavior, thereby decreasing machine shutdowns and work accidents while increasing performance and safety. Such developments, along with the benefits of digital transformation and the expansion of automation, smart manufacturing, and industrialization, are driving the growth of the global MRO market for the manufacturing industry.
